I think it is rapunzel... but I'am not completely sure it was a while since I made the map.

The Finnish epic Kalevala is set in Karelen I believe.

Recommend reading some francophone African literature especially since you don’t have much in that area.

Two yellow dots between Greenland and Iceland?
BearlyAwesomeHeretic t1_j8depgl wrote
Cool idea - but the dots colour/size ratio in comparison to the rest of the map doesn’t work. It looks like a grey map of the world and you really have to zoom in to see.

Two videogames set in Upper Michigan?
EDIT: Actually, I Googled it; based on the fact that there are two, I'm guessing Portal.

There is one movie dot in Serbia, what could that be?
NietzscheTheEchidna OP t1_j8dhhcz wrote
Sällskapsresan, it's a Swedish movie where a group of people travel there.

I think Peanuts is there but I can't remember the others :(.
NietzscheTheEchidna OP t1_j8dhm80 wrote
Rapture from the Bioshock series is located there.
NietzscheTheEchidna OP t1_j8dhqd2 wrote
Apparently the portal games is set in Upper Michigan, I had no idea until I made this map.

I think I found 7 Years in Tibet
NietzscheTheEchidna OP t1_j8di92x wrote
I think you're right that it looks to much like a blank map, although I feel like if the dot-sizes would increase a lot of parts of the map (like North-eastern US and England) would become to clustered and that there would be no room. I'am open for suggestions to solve this though :)
NietzscheTheEchidna OP t1_j8diwsg wrote
I will certainly look into that! Do you recommend any specific books?

jljl2902 t1_j8djrjq wrote
I think a heat map might work better than dots, and you can split it into several different maps for different continents
nodakakak t1_j8dklmh wrote
If not a heat map, maybe graduated symbology with a gradient/starburst effect.

You have dots placed in some somewhat exotic and obscure places, but have never seen a single bollywood film ever.
Amazing.

What is Ireland's dot for?
Yls0 t1_j8eriut wrote
Locations duh
nowning t1_j8est0w wrote
Could represent "generic Ireland" seeing that it's the centre of the country, in which case I'd say Fr. Ted. If it was located correctly, it should be in the Atlantic, west of Galway, just past where they dump "the old glow-in-the-dark".
nowning t1_j8et0vk wrote
Fr. Ted would be my guess
Maleficent-Present36 t1_j8etuks wrote
But why are they formatted that way? Why is it just some? What’s the relation between locations with dashes?

Wild, can’t believe i missed this. Guess it was hinted that the facility was built in an abandoned salt mine. Though according to the wiki, it only mentions upper Michigan and most of salt mines were in the northern part of the lower peninsula, so it was probably actually not in the UP, on top of being a fictional location ;) Thanks for teaching me something nerdy today OP!
